Japan is a group of islands. It has very little areas that are good for planting. So most of Japan's traditional food is from the sea. The Japanese use seaweed and fish in their food. They grow rice in terraced sides of the mountains. These fields are flooded so they can plant the rice seedlings.

Cooking and presentation is a work of art. The Japanese prefer how a dish looks to how it tastes.
